Default How To Remove Paddles?

My paddles are orange and I'd like to paint them black to match the black paddle extenders that I've ordered. It looks and feels like just one screw holding them in.
Is that all I need to move to take the paddles off?

Yes, that's all that's needed to take them off. However, please don't paint those orange ones. There are plenty of people out there who'd like those.

I have a spare set of black ones if you need them.

Its very simple to remove them; just requires a little bit of coordination and you'll need a T20 screwdriver or socket. Total of two screws.

And yes, I'd be one of those people that would happily trade you my black ones for your orange ones as long as they are in good condition!

i don't have any need for the orange ones, so maybe WhiteTardis and you should trade? He's been such an excellent member providing detailed info with all his resources... I think he deserves the swap haha.

That being said im happy to send my black set to whomever if needed. For some reason I don't see a PM in my inbox.
